Anticipating high growth potential for diode-pumped high-power solid-state lasers, Rofin-Sinar Laser GmbH has changed the organizational structure at its Hamburg, Germany, production facility. As of Dec. 1, there are two separate business units within the cutting and welding division, each of which will control its own development and production resources. "This step became necessary to accommodate the highly dynamic market [for diode-pumped technology]," said Peter Wirth, CEO of parent company Rofin-Sinar Technologies Inc. (Plymouth, MI, and Hamburg, Germany). "We see high growth potential in the coming years for this new type of solid-state lasers and expect to strengthen our position and reduce further development cycles with the new structure."—Paula M.
